What must be in place

You have a way to give Ashling the Pilgrim deathtouch.

How to execute it

  1. Give Ashling the Pilgrim deathtouch by any method.
  2. Activate Ashling the Pilgrim three times by paying {3}{R}{R}{R}, putting three +1/+1 counters on it, then removing all +1/+1 counters from it and dealing that much damage to each creature.
  3. Each creature dealt damage by Ashling the Pilgrim dies due to Ashling the Pilgrim's deathtouch.
  4. Scythe of the Wretched triggers for each creature that dies this way, returning them to the battlefield under your control, ensuring that Ashling the Piglrim is returned last so that Scythe of the Wretched will be attached to it.
  5. You may repeat this combo as desired.
